to put it mildly, I haven't been blown away by much commercial R&B lately, but this track features:
-what sounds like a Slick Rick sample
-a sweet steppers' groove mid-to-uptempo beat with nice housey synth and electric piano
-male falsetto (is all falsetto male falsetto? is it called something else for women? someone please enlighten me.)
-a Lil' Wayne verse. (This song is way too smooth and "normal" to allow for him to draw from his dank moldy well of psychologically twisted genius, but, whatever. Actually, his verse is, verbally, pretty blah, but I don't care, it fits the track and is catchy, and reminded me to make a copy of one of his 400 mixtapes from 2007 for a friend of mine.)
Nothing special, just some nice Chicago and Bronx via New Orleans ear candy to enjoy for a couple months, throw on a mixtape or two, and feel nostalgic over when you hear it in a couple years, when it takes you back to whatever pleasant silly shit is going on in your life right now.

I'm an idiot. The beat in this track, as was pointed out to me today, is totally from "Paid in Full."
Old enough to get that + Not able to catch that = WEAK
